Carmen-I make Protein Pancakes in large batches, then freeze. To reheat, I like to toast them in the toaster...makes the outside kind of crispy and the inside warm and soft! I HATE cottage cheese, but pureed in this recipe, you'd never know it's in there!
Protein Pancakes
1 C oats
1 C cottage cheese
6 egg whites
2 packs Splenda (I omit this)
¼ tsp vanilla
¼ tsp cinnamon
· Process all ingredients in a food processor or blender, until smooth.
· Allow to sit a few minutes to let the oats absorb some of the liquid.
· On a preheated skillet, cook pancakes slowly over low-medium heat. It will take longer than normal pancakes for the centers to cook thru.
Notes:
· This makes 2 servings, each a LARGE pancake. What I like to do is use my Pampered Chef muffin-sized scoop (don’t know the measurement of that) and make small pancakes.
· These freeze extremely well, and I LOVE these reheated in the TOASTER!!!!

I second Gayle's protein pancakes. I make them all the time now, but I make 4 pancakes per batch instead of 2 and they keep me full most of the morning. I also add a scoop of protein powder. I use my mini hand mixer to blend it all together. I refrigerate the extras for the week and nuke one in the morning and spread some peanut butter over the top. Yummy, filling, and nutritious. :9

I've tried making these twice now and I am having a hard time getting them to stay together. Both times they want to fall apart. first time I thoought it looke to runny so second time I used less egg whites, it was better but when I went to flip it it fell apart. any suggestions?

Laura-after I puree the ingredients together, I let the mixture sit in a bowl for several minutes. It thickens as it sits...as the oats absorb the liquid. When you put them on the griddle, cook them on a lower heat for a longer time. See if either of those suggestions help.

I make this Quiche from the Eating for Life book alot! I like it crustless so I eliminate the whole wheat tortillas and just spray a glass pie pan really good and it never sticks.

Eating for Life Turkey Bacon Quiche
Ingredients:
6 strips lean turkey bacon
3 (8 inch) whole wheat tortillas
3 whole eggs
8 egg whites (or 1 cup egg substitute)
1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 cup low fat or fat free sour cream
3/4 cup reduced fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup broccoli florets, fresh or frozen (thawed)
***note: I substitute spinach, mushroom pieces, and onion for the broccoli (about 1.5 cups worth because I make it crustless and there's room in the baking dish).
Preheat oven to 350
Cook turkey bacon and set aside to cool.
Lightly coat a 9 inch pie plate with cooking spray. Overlap 2 tortillas and cut the third one in half and put on sides to form a crust (or eliminate them completely).
In a large mixing bowl, beat whole eggs and egg whites with a fork until blended. Then mix skim milk and sour cream into the eggs.
Chop cooked turkey bacon into bite size pieces.
Add turkey bacon, cheddar cheese, and vegetables to blended egg mixture and combine thoroughly.
Pour egg mixture into pie plate and bake for approximately 50 minutes. You'll know it's done when you tap the edge of the pie plate and the filling is set and moist. If it's still liquidy, bake a few minutes longer and test again.
Allow to cool and cut into 4-6 pieces. I keep this in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days (or freeze the leftovers).
Enjoy!

>Protein Pancakes
>1 C oats
>1 C cottage cheese
>6 egg whites
>2 packs Splenda (I omit this)
>¼ tsp vanilla
>¼ tsp cinnamon
I made these last night. I did a half batch and doubled the vanilla and cinnamon. Very good with peanut butter (just 14 grams worked nicely) and applesauce! Letting the mix sit helped a lot to thicken the mixture before putting in the skillet. I made 2 pancakes and ate one last night and froze the other. Having it as I type. Yummy!
Thanks for the recipe!!
